There are several types of sleep therapy machines, but a CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) machine is the most common. A CPAP machine is designed to send a constant flow of airway pressure to your throat to so that your airway stays open during sleep, effectively treating the spontaneous pauses in breath associated with sleep apnea.
Treating your sleep apnea will positively impact your life by increasing your energy, alertness, and overall happiness. Begin a healthier, happier life with sleep therapy.3
CPAP therapy is a noninvasive, highly effective treatment that gently blows air into your nose and/or mouth to prevent your airway from collapsing while you sleep.
By taking your therapy to heart and using your machine every night, you can see a dramatic improvement in daily life and your overall well-being.
Adjusting to therapy
Getting fully comfortable with your machine and mask can take a little time, but it will happen – and it’s worth it.
Life with therapy
You can get into a comfortable nighttime routine, and the change in how you feel when you’re awake can be significant.
There are several PAP therapy device options to treat your sleep apnea. Some patients can tolerate a steady, gentle flow of air during sleep, while others require variations in pressure. Talk to your doctor about your unique needs.
DreamStation is available in Auto CPAP, CPAP Pro, CPAP, DreamStation Go Travel CPAP, Auto BiPAP and BiPAP Pro versions.
CPAP machines
CPAP provides one level of pressure to your upper airway throughout the night.
BiPAP machines
BiPAP bi-level provides two levels of pressure throughout the night.
Auto-adjusting machines
Auto-adjusting provides a variable pressure throughout the night based on your needs and sleep stage.
Display settings
CPAP machines have different settings that allow your doctor to adjust air pressure. You should always be sure to use the setting your doctor specifies.
Tubing
Tubing passes air from the machine to the mask. It’s important to position the tube over or through your headboard so that you don’t pinch it.
Air filter
Filters ensure that you’re only breathing clean air. Some machines have one filter, while others include an ultra-fine filter.
A humidifier can connect directly to your machine to add moisture to the air you breathe.
Replacement schedule4
Air filter: every month
Tubing: every 3 months
DreamStation machine: every 5 years
Wherever you go, sleep apnea follows. To perform at your best — whether you’re on the job or out to sea — it’s vitally important to maintain your therapy every night. At Philips, we know that sound, restful sleep is something you simply can’t do without. That’s why we’re providing this information to help you get the sleep you need, anywhere you go.
You don’t have to stop traveling because you have sleep apnea., Also, stopping your sleep therapy while you’re traveling can lead to setbacks. Here’s how to travel with your sleep apnea equipment and keep your love of exploring alive.
If you are questioned about your CPAP machine, it states that it is “medical equipment” and “suitable for airline use” on the bottom of every Philips machine. CPAP masks can sometimes unexpectedly break as they age. When travelling, it is a good idea to carry a spare mask.
If you’re heading outside of the United States, be sure to bring the proper power adapter or cord. Some countries use different electric currents and outlets. Using the wrong current without an adapter can damage your machine.
